Hello Bill,
I need to update my catalina.policy file for this and also need to run the
tomcat with "-security" option. Now when you run the tomcat with security option, then even you need to specify permissions for your DbDriver classes. Following are the changes -->
Changes Required :
a. add "-security" option to the start tomcat command in "startup.bat" file. Like this,
"call "%EXECUTABLE%" start -security %CMD_LINE_ARGS%"
b.Update "conf/catalina.policy" file for the permissions you want to give for certain classes in contexts. Like this,
b1 >
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/RmiRprt/WEB-INF/classes/-" {
permission java.security.AllPermission "", "";
};
b2> Also, in this case you have to add CONNECT permission for your Db Server Drivers classes. Like this,
grant codeBase "file:C:/Sachin/OtherJars/classes12.zip" {
permission java.net.SocketPermission "133.197.189.93:1521", "connect";
};
c. Also, modify "catalina.bat" file. Set CATALINA_OPTS variablefor security related logs. Like this,
set CATALINA_OPTS=%CATALINA_OPTS% -Djava.security.debug=access,failure
By the way, My tomcat version is 4.1.29.
I hope this would help anybody with same problem.
Thanks,
Sachin
